I was terribly wrong about `suite` and `unittest`, yes, however if
there's something wrong with the following snippet

{{{
#!sh

$ cat setup.py

from setuptools import setup

setup(name='xxx', version='1.0', description='Xxx', package_dir={'xxx'
: ''}, py_modules=['xxx.py'], test_suite='xxx.my_suite')

$ cat xxx.py

def my_suite():
  from unittest import TestCase as TC, TestSuite as TS
  class MyTC(TC):
    def test_fail(self):
      self.fail()
  s = TS()
  s.addTest(MyTC('test_fail'))
  return s

$ python setup.py test
running test
running egg_info
writing xxx.egg-info/PKG-INFO
writing top-level names to xxx.egg-info/top_level.txt
writing dependency_links to xxx.egg-info/dependency_links.txt
package init file '__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file)
file py.py (for module xxx.py) not found
reading manifest file 'xxx.egg-info/SOURCES.txt'
writing manifest file 'xxx.egg-info/SOURCES.txt'
running build_ext
test_fail (xxx.MyTC) ... FAIL

======================================================================
FAIL: test_fail (xxx.MyTC)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/.../temp/xxx.py", line 6, in test_fail
    self.fail()
AssertionError

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 test in 0.001s

FAILED (failures=1)
}}}

... then I'm also terribly wrong about setuptool's `test_suite` too ...
